“While we want this Constitution to be as solid and permanent
as we can make it, there is no permanence in Constitutions. There should
be a certain flexibility. If you make anything rigid and permanent,
you stop the nation’s growth, the growth of a living, vital, organic
people…. In any event we could not make this Constitution so rigid
that it cannot be adapted to changing conditions. When the world is
in turmoil and we are passing through a very swift period of transition,
what we may do today may not be wholly capable tomorrow.” -- Jawaharlal
Nehru
